June Abrams has always lived in the shadows of her own success. Known to millions under a pseudonym, she's an acclaimed, invisible author hiding in a small town, pursuing her dream away from the world's gaze. In the quiet comforts of her best friend's company and the familiar rhythm of her writing, June feels safe. Yet, life has a way of twisting plots, pulling her heart toward something or rather someone she never saw coming.

Graham, a single father with a past that clings like shadows, has moved to this sleepy town for a fresh start with his daughter. But as their lives intertwine, June discovers that the new chapter she thought she was writing may be the beginning of something she hadn't prepared for: a story with love, healing, and the courage to step beyond the walls she's so carefully built.

In Clocked Heart, For June, it's about stepping out from behind the pages of her books to embrace the messy, unpredictable beauty of real life. For Graham, it's about discovering that even the most broken past can lead to a hopeful new beginning.

What happens when the lines between fiction and reality blur? When two guarded souls realize that the greatest stories are the ones they never meant to write?
Sometimes, the most unexpected chapters are the ones that change everything.

Luca Grey, the star football player of Grey College in Glencoe, was running late for practice one day when he stumbled upon Nora Dawson, one of his classmates, sitting under a tree engrossed in a book. Nora was the type of girl who preferred the quiet company of books to the loud chatter of her peers, and Luca was the jock known for his good looks, athletic prowess, and confidence on and off the field. As Luca ran past Nora, something caught his attention, and he couldn't take his eyes off her. He stumbled over a rock and lost his balance, causing his football to hit Nora square in the face. Mortified, Luca rushed over to her, apologizing profusely and checking if she was okay. Nora was dazed, but as they locked eyes, something shifted between them. Over the next few weeks, Luca and Nora continued to cross paths at Grey College, and Nora's best friend and roommate, Lily, encouraged her to give Luca a chance. However, Nora was hesitant, thinking that he was just another arrogant jock who couldn't care less about her nerdy interests. Luca, on the other hand, was intrigued by Nora and started to attend some of her lectures just to see her in action. He was more than just a footballer, and he wanted her to see that. Despite Luca's efforts to show Nora that he was more than just his athletic achievements, he had a hard time convincing her that he wasn't just a player. Nora, on the other hand, was guarded and had been hurt before, so she didn't want to risk getting hurt again. Unbeknownst to them, their meeting was no accident. Fate had brought them together for a reason, and their journey was just beginning. Whether it would be a match made in heaven or hell was unclear.
